T13 is yet another set of horrendous looking tier. I think Blizzard uses that mantra of "they have to look like what they're stalking" as an excuse to make half-ass sets and take a backseat on the innovation course. The only tier sets worth wearing IMO were T3 (oldschool Naxx set of course) and T12 (which is what i'll be transmorging to). I hope they do a better job in MOP two nice sets out of 13 is pretty poor. The set bonuses are very nice for Surv and BM, not so much for MM considering we have to steady shot twice every ten seconds (or something around there) anyways. But as they stated, their intent was to bring Surv and BM more up to speed while leaving MM in the same place it was.

I'll have fun killing the bosses and collecting the new ranged weapons and mounts, but other than that I'm ready for MOP and some change. Hunter has been quite boring this expac, and that's quite a feat considering how bland the class was in BC.

Art is subjective. I think there are some amazing sets in T13. Mage, shaman, PRIEST, Pally, and DK sets are amazing. I think priest T13 may be one of the coolest looking sets ever.

Guess its a matter of opinion, i absolutly love our T13, i can't wrap my head on how some people will xmog it into the monstrosity that was T11, but too each his own.

I agree Hunters are kinda bland compared to other classes though, specialy in the animation department, i played a Ranger for a while on Aion and i loved every second of it (if only the game itself wasn't shitty ), animations for the class were great and felt good, Hunters don't have much, every shot looks more or less the same outside Cobra Shot i guess, our character doesn't really aim when he shoots, our cooldowns like Rapid Fire or Call of the Wild don't really have any graphics etc..

I happen to love the T13 visual as well. It's definitely one of the better looking sets. I do agree that very few of the 13 sets look appealing. T2, T8, and now T13 being the best, with the most recent, t12 being "meh" if you get the heroic model skinning. t9 made me want to not play, (although it was shit for ALL classes if you ask me) and 11 makes me want to slam my head into a glass table for having worn it for a full tier. I personally will be transmogging to Season 5 armor as well as collecting shaman T5 and T6 look-alikes for the same purpose. I've already been contemplating going BM for this patch assuming its actually competitive and boss fights actually warrant it. (10 man guild and I am a primary non-tank interrupt).

lol i wasn't referring to the other class sets when I said horrendous, just ours lol. I like all the other sets except the rogue one probably. I'm talking exclusively about hunter sets (since it's the hunter forums). Like I said, I detest all the set art except for original T3 and T12. Those are the only sets to me that look like they have thought and ingenuity put into them along with a pinch of "hey this will look nice in game as well on the concept art screens".

You are entitled to your opinion but I don't see any valid claims to Blizz's laziness or lack of imagination. I would prefer us donning the garb of what he have killed, than to use irrelevant gear that looks like plate. Hunter's and Shaman's gear matches creatures/foes because if you look at their RL counterparts, many wore the skin of animals to either gain that animals attributes, or connect with that animal in the spirit world. Hunter gear makes WAY more sense than most classes.

IMO, your character name pretty much states how pessimistic you are, I wouldn't expect you to be satisfied with much in-game.

I love this set looks-wise, even the helm! T12 was ok..except for that damn helm. But I hate lots of helms.
@ihatepeople I personally thought t4, 5, and 6(except helm) were all amazing as well. Tier 6 (minus helm) is actually one of my favorite sets in the game.

I'm well aware of the reasoning behind Blizzard's design of hunter tier and the lore behind it. I just wish they would make the shit look better. T11 was one of the most cartoony and gimmicky looking sets we've had before. There also wasn't an aquatic/murloc type boss in all of T11, so i'm not even sure where the idea for that set came from. I guess the set was decent looking if you had access to the heroic versions, but it was mediocre at best really.

I like that fact that hunters wear the "skin" of whatever they happen to be stalking/killing at that time in the game, but there's no reason for it to look bad. T3 and T12 have an almost PERFECT blend of lore, aesthetic awesomeness, and color. I don't see why the process couldn't be repeated with other tier. T13 doesn't look terrible, but I'm not gonna act like it blows me out of the water either. It's a mediocre set in a long line of mediocre tier. The heroic set has a nice color scheme, but that's about it. I'm not a pessimist, but I don't sugarcoat stuff either if that's what you're looking for. My in-game name has been a running joke since I started playing in release. I'm actually a really chill person, I just made the name because it was available and sounded funny to me. Plus it keeps random people from asking me crazy questions.

Tier 4 wasn't too bad, I loved the name. I would have loved the set too if it wasn't brown and plagued by the usual "junky ass helm" disease that afflicts the majority of our tier sets. Tier 5 to me was a steaming pile of junk. Tier 6 had the best shoulders and gloves probably besides tier 3. But other than that the set was pretty bland to me.
